EXCELLENT paint job! Very impressive!

Speaking as a dedicated scooter tramp, I wouldn't be able to have that paint job for 2 reasons:

The color would get me into fist-fights constantlly
With that graphic on the gas tank, I wouldn't be able to keep my eyes on the road

ROTFLMAO! TOTALLY TEASING with ya! It looks GREAT!

Very cool, but my wife would kill me if I put that graphic on my bike.

Nice, just bought a new brush for fine details, I am looking to do more mural type work as anyone with a brush can lay flames these days.

I wish I were so talented, a friend of ours did the paint, custom mixed the color, and another fellow did the angel, the clouds on the side, the wing on the fender, and the pinstriping. Both are awesome at what they do and the result far exceeded my expectations. By the way, my husband was the technical director on this project as he took the bike down and reassembled it. He also chose the angel graphic, i did not want it at first but now love it, and am glad I listened to his advice on it. (please do not repeat that outside of this forum)
